HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Cakewalk Music Software\Cakewalk\Cakewalk VST X64\InventoryĭosName, FullName andFullPath are probably the values that would need to be tweaked within the plug-ins key. But that would possibly(?) break backwards compatability, and we know how good Cakewalk is with that.Ĥ - It's probably possible to hack the relevant registry keys to make it work, but you'd likely have to do it every VST scan (definitely if you do a full rescan):
use filename to disambiguate if you have 2 dll's presenting the same ID). NTFS can do funky things with 8.3 names even if you delete a file and copy a new one with what should be the same 8.3 name back in, if you do it quickly enough, Windows gives it a new 8.3 name.Ģ - Given the above, have you tried uninstalling and then re-installing, rather than updating, which might create the same 8.3 name for the new file (if it's essentially the same filename/8.3 name(?ģ - There's no central registry for VST IDs, so there's merit in using the filename (else you could end up with 2 different VSTs with the same ID.what to do then?), but there's probably improvements that could be made (eg. Who can I tag or where can i post this issue so that someone sees it?ġ - Have you (intentionally or unintentionally) disable 8.3 file naming on the drive where your VST dll's are stored? For historical reasons, Cakewalk needs the 8.3 file naming to be enabled ( disable 8.3 naming system-wide%2C run the following,short names%3A fsutil.exe 8dot3name strip %2Fs %2Fv D%3A). Perhaps there is a workaround, not sure, i don't think renaming does anything. How can I bring this to the attention of the right person at Cakewalk?Ĭakewalk needs to work properly with UAD, it's one of the best systems around (agree or not) This is a huge drag because it means Cakewalk/UAD users can't update their plugins or Cakewalk will not open older sessions that contain that particular plugin.
They don't have complaints from other DAWs with this issue. I was complaining to UAD over and over that they shouldn't be renaming plugins, however they came back to me saying the problem is independent to Cakewalk because it uses the plugin title rather than the plugin ID#. So, a "Neve 33609" compressor gets renamed to "Neve 33609c".īecause the name has changed, Cakewalk will not open the Neve 33609 in older session files because Cakewalk identifies plugins by their name rather than a plugin ID#. When UAD updates a plugin, they change the name of it.
Hi there, I've been back and fourth with Universal Audio, complaining about an issue with their recent updates (last two updates)
